The height requested is something like max(height, width).
It has been `working' this way since Gtk+ 2.4 (and it broke
my apps at that time).  It seems to be already reported:

I suppose everyone affected just shrugs and packs an image
+ label to the menu item himself instead of using
GtkImageMenuItem (that's what I do too).
